Blue Bayou
Written by - Roy Orbison & Joe Melson
From - Simple Dreams
I feel so bad, I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind, on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Work until the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times, on Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday, come what may, to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise, through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

Wanna see my baby again
Wanna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Work until the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times, on Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday, come what may, to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise, through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

Oh, that boy of mine, by my side
The silver moon and the evenin' tide
Oh, some sweet day, gonna take away, this hurting inside

Well, I'll never be blue
My dream's come true on Blue Bayou
